I had the chance to spend 1 1/2 hours with Tommy when he invited me into a sound check prior to a show a couple years ago. He was so very kind and personable. He clearly loves and probably lives to play guitar for people. However, what struck me at the time and then to see the show a few hours later, when he plays, it didn't seem to mattter if the room was full or it was only me. When he closed his eyes, he was just doing what he loves and I believe HAS TO DO. He was just enjoying the sound.
tommy emmanuel just took you aside and started jamming with you....that is amazing how many people were at the show? Had he seen your videos on youtube?
I met him...I was at Windsor to see one of his biggest fans play and he came trotting by and I mentioned to him that he "looked like that tommy emmanuel guy" which he smiled and say "nah, not me"....and ran off... Kind of "cheeky" as the brits might say.
saw Tommy last night. And i must say. there is not a musician who is more generous to his audience and his fans in terms of his giving out his gift of musicianship. You're a lucky man.
this is so cool, i had a similar experience in norman oklahoma last february. i volunteered to usher at his show and was allowed to bring my guitar and he showed me some stuff of "those who wait" and he signed my guitar. tommy is so cool for doing stuff like this, he probably doesn't remember me at all but i definitely won't forget it
These comments are so true. Cause I feel the same.. Lucky bastard! I brought my guitar to Tommy's concert this year and he left right after the concert. :( didn't sign my guitar. I would chop of my hands just to get my guitar signed :) anyway. LUCKY BASTARD :D
It's amazing how nice a man Tommy is and how patient he is with you here. How he loves his music. You are so good as well. This must have been quite an experience. I think Tommy Emmanuel is the very top.
I envy you. There's not really much more to say. Tommy Emmanuel is probably the most expressive and talented guitarist in the world. He really has a love for his music and its evident =) Way to be scott.
WOW SCOTT!!! We ALL envy and think you are SO lucky !!! May i ask You to share with us mortals some more comments about your magic experience??? I am (i think i am not the only one) SO curious !!!!!! Congratulations !!!!
theres not much left to say.... im just soo soo lucky to have met him that day. tommy seemed like a genuinely nice person despite the fact that i barely talked and just stared at him for the whole time bc i was so nervous. he really didnt have to take the time to play with me and teach me ( my friends and i were the only ones there) because he just finished the 3 hr workshop which other people payed 90 dollars for.
Tommy is a class act to spend the time and effort to improve your playing. You talent shows thru to him and it looks as if he is genuinely interested. Wow
